Hull KR must be prepared for a sharp rise in pre-season intensity when taking on Toronto Wolfpack tomorrow.

That’s the view of winger Ryan Shaw, who is ready to take on the Canadian outfit at KCOM Craven Park ahead of the campaign’s kick-off.

The Robinsblew the cobwebs off in a 30-16 win over a youthful Widnes Vikings last Sunday but Brian McDermott’s new-look Wolfpack will bring a much greater challenge.

Toronto narrowly missed out on promotion to Super League via the Million Pound Game, where London Broncos prevailed in a nail-biting 4-2 win. Recruiting the likes of Jon Wilkin, Ricky Leutele, Bodene Thompson and more, the Wolfpack will once again have their eyes set on the top-flight for 2020.

Keen to make individual improvements as well as tighten up as a team, Shaw realises KR must be close to their best to take down Toronto.
